THE mum of brave toddler Charlie Harris-Beard who is fighting leukaemia has revealed he could be given a new “miracle” trial drug to save his life.

The two-year-old, from Kidderminster, was this week admitted to Birmingham Children’s Hospital (BCH) in the hope that he will be able to undergo the treatment.

His mum Fiona, aged 31, informed supporters on the youngster’s Facebook page that the family had met with their doctor to discuss the new medication and said she hoped it would be the “miracle drug” that could save her son.

But on Wednesday the family were once again left worrying when Charlie was moved to a high dependency unit after contracting pneumonia.

Thankfully the tot appeared to have beaten the bout after Fiona revealed that her son was “sat up eating chips, giggling at Mr Tumble and being extremely bossy”.

Medics are now building up his strength ahead of the treatment.

Fiona wrote on Facebook: “Let’s pray even harder that this may well be the miracle drug.”

She added: “There is an very good chance that Charlie may be able to have an experimental treatment here at BCH which would start next Monday, our little soldier however has been admitted back on to ward 15 until then for special feed and nutrition and strength.”

Fiona had informed Facebook friends about the new hope on January 25. It follows previous new treatment, that failed to work on the battling tot.

The post said: “Every one please listen up. I’m overwhelmed to inform you all that Charlie will be meeting up with his doctor at BCH on Monday to discuss a potentially promising trial drug.

“For each and every one of you that have prayed and kept your fingers tightly crossed, thank you.”

In December the youngster started Aurora Kinase treatment, just days after he drove down the aisle at his parents’ wedding in his favourite remote controlled car. But his parents were devastated to learn it didn’t work.

Little Charlie has been battling acute myeloid leukaemia since Easter 2011. He underwent a groundbreaking transplant using stem-cells from an American baby’s umbilical cord in October 2011. But in November the family were devastated to learn the cancer had returned.
